Today’s Tech Spot Roundup
Qualcomm may borrow Samsung's cooling tech for its next Snapdragon flagship
The Heat Pass Block first appeared in Samsung’s 2nm Exynos 2600, reportedly delivering a 16 percent improvement in thermal resistance. It’s a copper-based layer built directly onto the processor die, providing a direct pathway for heat to dissipate before it can radiate through surrounding components.
This industrial cooling setup keeps AMD's $12,000 96-core Threadripper Pro 9995WX cool at 5.3 GHz
Rather than delid the $12,000 workstation chip, the team reverse-engineered its heat spreader to design a replacement from scratch. They borrowed an integrated heat spreader (IHS) through Asus China’s general manager Tony Yu and then used older Ryzen Threadripper 1900X chips as test subjects.
AMD Just Made Another Radeon Mistake
AMD has an easy win sitting right in front of it, yet it’s choosing not to take it. FSR 4 already works on older Radeon GPUs, so why is AMD still holding it back?
